Bodega Chacra is located in the Rio Negro Valley of northern Patagonia, 620 miles south of Buenos Aires, roughly equidistant west to east from the Andes Mountains and the Atlantic Ocean. The region possesses a dry and arid climate and is protected by a natural barrier of the surrounding desert. The air is pristine and without pollution, creating tremendous luminosity and purity of sunlight. The seasons are precisely defined, with hot summers, cold winters and mild springs and autumns. This consistency of climate creates a consistency of wine from vintage to vintage.In 2004, Piero Incisa della Rocchetta purchased the first of vineyard land, which is now Bodega Chacra. At the time this was a property with an existing, though abandoned, vineyard planted over seventy years ago. Piero was called from of his multigenerational, Italian winemaking family to the southern hemisphere, compelled by the goal to produce world-class Pinot Noir from uncharted and untested territory.Thi
